\nHogan Lovells, a leading international law firm, selected Louisville to establish its second global business services center with an $8.9 million investment projected to create 250 high-quality jobs.<\/p>\n

The business services center is the Hogan Lovells\u2019 second such location, with the first located in Johannesburg, South Africa. Though the exact address of the new business services center is still under consideration, the Louisville location is expected to open this summer and will allow the firm to better provide support to its clients in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Hogan Lovells, one of the world\u2019s top 10 law firms, operates from 49 offices in 25 countries, employing more than 2,500 lawyers and 5,000 people in total.<\/p>\n

Alice Valder Curran, Hogan Lovells\u2019 Washington DC regional managing partner, said the firm concluded many of its business services need to remain close to its lawyers while others can be readily performed remotely with no impact to quality.<\/p>\n

Hogan Lovells\u2019 Americas regional managing partner, Cole Finegan, said the firm chose Louisville as it offers an excellent supply of talented people.<\/p>\n

To encourage the investment and job growth in the community, the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority preliminarily approved the company for tax incentives up to $4 million through the Kentucky Business Investment program. The performance-based incentive allows a company to keep a portion of its investment over the agreement term through corporate income tax credits and wage assessments by meeting job and investment targets.<\/p>\n

In addition, Hogan Lovells is eligible to receive resources from the Kentucky Skills Network. Through the Kentucky Skills Network, companies are eligible to receive no-cost recruitment and job placement services, reduced-cost customized training and job training incentives. Last year, the Kentucky Skills Network trained more than 84,000 employees from more than 5,600 Kentucky companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
